A DEADLY WISH- LIFE MINUS YOU (ALBUM REVIEW)






Take this awesome four piece band known as A Deadly Wish and fuse the sounds of Metalcore with a small touch of Death Metal and that's what makes this band a promising band to anyone who is into this style of music. Coming from California is A Deadly Wish, one that destroys LIVE as well as in the studio. Awesome harmonic with brutal riffs and scathing screaming vocals with a blend of growling and some clean vocals that made me a believer that this band will get stronger and much more kick ass in time. If you like bands like Devildriver, A Day To Remember and As I Lay Dying, then these guys are right up your alley. The album Life Minus You focuses the listener into a realm that will make them want more of A Deadly Wish. This band will grow on you. They have an ability to express their talent fluently and are very impressive. If you are looking for a NEW Metalcore band to check out, don't pass up this band called A Deadly Wish. Life Minus You is getting a 5/5 stars just based on who and how they are and sound. Very cool guys to chill with before and after a show for sure. So metalheads across the globe, this is EVILVENGEANCE666 telling all of you to keep supporting METAL, support the underground and most of all; keep those horns up!!! \m/-_-\m/

MAGNANIMVS- STORMS OF CHAOTIC REVELATIONS (ALBUM REVIEW)






Who's ready to have their ears blasted once again? Take this 3 piece band known as Magnanimvs & dive into their world of super intense and thundering relentless drum blasting with killer double bass drumming that is abysmal, bass tones that are unfathomable and dark which smash your face in, guitar that has swirling pinched harmonics in the second song called The Dark Spear of Condemnation and vocals which bash in your skull with with a sledgehammer. Magnanimvs are a high tech blend compounded of Black Metal & Death Metal. This band will batter you to no end from start to finish, this is one bad ass album which makes the listeners a bit more aware that some bands are getting stronger with what they do. Magnanimvs won't disappoint fans of Behemoth, early Vader, Immortal, Krisiun & Gorgoroth to name a few. If you like your metal extreme as hell, then this will quench your thirst for more than what you probably had expected. Storms of Chaotic Revelations is getting a 5/5 stars based on how incredible this album is within its entirety. Remember metalheads, this is EVILVENGEANCE666 telling all of you to keep supporting UNDERGROUND metal and your local music scene, keep shredding metal & MOST OF ALL: KEEP YOUR HORNS UP!!! \m/-_-\m/

INTERVIEW WITH FORMER SUFFOCATION DRUMMER MICHAEL SMITH!!!





Here's the LATEST interview for Underground Noise. I'm very honored and excited to announce that Michael Smith former drummer of legendary band Suffocation is now in the band Synesis Absorption, and here to answer my questions. Without any further do, here it is!!

UN: What prompted you to become a musician?

MS: Most everyone in my family is heavily into music, in one form or another It's in my blood. I've always been surrounded by instruments and singing and all things involved. It was a natural path for me.

UN: What do you like best about being a drummer?

MS: Drummers are responsible for adding the different emotions to a song. With the beat you can direct the attention of the listeners to follow all else that is going on in the song. If you have flavor to do so, of course.

UN: Since you've departed from Suffocation, do you miss anything about being with them?

MS: I don't miss being with the individuals, I definitely felt held back with the progression of the band. The mentality was just old, and not aggressive enough to take advantage of the current industry. My goal is always to evolve and influence others to evolve. I miss being in the face of the fans, nothing else.

UN: Where has been your favorite place to perform and why?

MS: NY & Los Angeles. NY is my home and California is just metal all day and night.

UN: How did you get into Death Metal & Extreme Metal?

MS: I'm into all forms of music one way or another, but I chose to find the least understood and obscure form of music in order to stay constantly challenged and differ from mainstream music.

UN: What is your favorite type of drums to use?

MS: Properly tuned and maintained ones. It doesn't matter which brand, if all the pieces are there, I will play the same.

UN: Who are your most major influences, both personally and musically?

MS: My parents. They've housed every band I've played in and allowed us to create our craft to what it is today. Not many parents would do the same, especially Death Metal. Other than that I'm influenced by the skill level of the musicians in Jazz and Classical and the singing and the musical influence of the Motown era.

UN: Do you have a career besides music?

MS: Since I've left the touring life, by day I'm a Metal Fabricator. I weld and create shit the world needs and uses daily from raw steel. I'm a drum teacher, as well a hired studio drummer when I'm not at the day job.

UN: Any last words for Underground Noise?

MS: The music industry is on a steady decline....but the musicians will always remain and be the most important element. If we as musicians focus on getting back into just writing music, sharing, owning and raising the bar one song at a time, we will quickly find out that we didn't need the "industry". The musician will always speak the loudest. I've been busy working the platform for all of us. Musicians, check it out. www.dmmcompany.com

MAD ARCHITECT- JOURNEY TO MADNESS (ALBUM REVIEW)





One band which launched out of Gothenburg Sweden who is making its debut, is Mad Architect. The band happened to team up with American guitarist Erik Ferentinos of The Anti-Division & The Stephen Pearcy Band to perform bass on this release. The best way to describe Mad Architect is dark, progressive, melodic, atmospheric power metal with a dab of death metal and some black metal influences. This band traps the listener by tearing at its soul with its very impressive opus. If you're a fan of Dark Tranquillity, Dimmu Borgir & In Flames, then you won't resist this band. Snowy Shaw who is originally a drummer, performs his vocal technique with grim snarls and very raspy clean vocals. He has also played with the likes of Therion back in 2006, King Diamond, Dimmu Borgir, Dream Evil & Mercyful Fate and is currently touring with Sabaton. He's also photographed bands such as: Therion, Amon Amarth & a few others. Despite being a debut album, this album is very amazing and very arcane within its own eruption, to make known what Journey To Madness is all about. The intro called Echoes From Beyond is a magnificent yet dreary and captivating instrumental. So metalheads, if you like the bands I've mentioned above, or follow the members who make up this band, then you'll want to assail your ears with Mad Architect. With a very obscure sound, this album is getting a 5/5 stars based on everything it has in it. My personal favorite song is Universal Law, but it will grow on you. Until next time METALHEADS...KEEP SUPPORTING THE UNDERGROUND METAL SCENE, SUPPORT LOCAL METAL MUSIC & MOST OF ALL: KEEP THOSE HORNS UP!!! EVILVENGEANCE666 \m/-_-\m/

PSILOCYBE LARVAE- THE LABYRINTH OF PENUMBRA (ALBUM REVIEW)






Melodic sounds entwined with dark Gothic & Black Metal riffs & shrieks along with some deep inhuman sounding growls is what makes Psilocybe Larvae's NEW album unique. Psilocybe Larvae's new album provides the listeners & fans with an awesome & terrorizing skill that is top notch like Dimmu Borgir, if not better. The Labyrinth of Penumbra shows the band's strength by how much they've matured both musically and lyrically. To sum it up, PL is very experimental in many elements. Some bands do that sort of thing to make the listeners wonder as to what might be next, but this band always guarantees a great amount of intensity that is just for the right audience. If you like twisted sounding melodies with some acoustic and ambient sounds, then this band is right up your alley along with some sheer brutality in the vocals as well as the music. As far as TLOP goes, this album is getting a 5/5 stars based on their creativity and ambition to make their own sound far different than most bands who are out today and for being an onslaught to those who haven't heard them before. Until next time METALHEADS, keep your horns up and keep supporting the UNDERGROUND METAL SCENE!!! EVILVENGEANCE666 \m/-_-\m/

BLOOD TRIBE- REPULSE (EP REVIEW)






Coming from Evansville Indiana is where you'll find the mighty 5 piece Death Metal band, Blood Tribe. Suffocating vocals that are deep and brutal screams like Divine Empire & early Cannibal Corpse, guitar riffs and drum beats that will crush your bones and bash in your skull with endless superb sound and quality just like the legendary Decapitated. In some spots of their songs, they remind me of early Napalm Death as well. With being a band that stands out from some, this one is promising. If you're into bands like Cannibal Corpse, Napalm Death & Blood Red Throne, then you ought to get a hold of Repulse by Blood Tribe. Amazing chord progressions and great slides with what riffs they've created makes Blood Tribe really sick and astonishing. Blood Tribe is another band signed to Dark Harvest Records and shouldn't be passed up. A band this good will make your eardrums explode. However, I'm sure many bands do just that, but this one will do it much faster and better. So if you like the bands I've mentioned, you'll fall in love with Blood Tribe and you'll be happy you did. With all of that said everyone, this EP is getting a 5/5 stars. I highly recommend them to fans of any age and any metalhead that is out there looking for something NEW to check out. So, keep the Underground Music scene alive, support your local music scene, support metal period!! Also, most of all metalheads, KEEP YOUR HORNS UP!! \m/-_-\m/ EVILVENGEANCE666

BALOR'S EYE-LORCAN (EP REVIEW)







Some bands don't get enough recognition, but if you take this 5 piece band coming from Baltimore Maryland known as Balor's Eye; you won't be disappointed. They've got music which sounds better than Dysrhythmia. Taking technical metal to a whole different level in their own way makes this band stamps out many bands that can't do what they do. These guys know how to let one have it by blending their own sound into something very innovating to fans of any metal style. This EP should be a part of your music collection, that is if it isn't by now. With spots that are brutal like Cannibal Corpse & some technical parts along the lines of Necrophagist & Blotted Science. Swirling guitars and sweeps and drums that are pounded out to beat on anyone's brain to make them proud of what Balor's Eye can and will do for years to come. Even though it's an all instrumental EP, some will like it and maybe some won't. So metalheads, if you like bands like Dysrhythmia, Blotted Science, Sleep Terror, The Dillinger Escape Plan & Cannibal Corpse, then check out Balor's Eye. Perhaps it'll make you a believer too by giving them a listen or two or three. With all of this said, this EP is getting a 5/5 stars just by how technically insane the music is and by being a band signed to Dark Harvest Records makes it awesome too! Anyhow metalheads, that is it for this review. Keep the Underground ALIVE, support underground music and your local music scene & MOST OF ALL: KEEP THOSE HORNS UP!!! \m/-_-\m/ EVILVENGEANCE666
